 In the final two chapters of this book, we will look at game development, with an emphasis on both implementation and design. In particular, we will discuss the motivation for using game technology to develop serious application, which in summary may be characterized as the requirement to allow for immersion, understood as experiental involvement of the user.

Essential sections are 11.2, in which we describe the development of VU-Life using the Source Half-Life 2 SDK, and 12.1, which presents a semi-formal game model, that may serve as a reference for designing more complex games.
